Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) “Finger Pointing and Calling” is widely used in Japanese industry, and it is recognized that it has the effect of human error prevention. There is a movement of introducing it into nursing procedure in hospital. For the thorough of “Finger Pointing and Calling” in nursing procedure, not only the lecturing course but also the practical training is necessary. We have developed the prototype system to support the practical training, which automatically detects “Finger Pointing and Calling” and evaluate it simply from the data of the wearable sensor equipped on the upper arm of nurse and the voice sound from the microphone. In this paper, we show the outline of the prototype system of simple “Finger Pointing and Calling” evaluation and the result of the trial run of our system in the hospital.
